 Thanks for the report and patch!  I'll upload a fix in the next day or 
 two; sorry for any resulting inconvenience in the meantime.

 That would absolutely have been my preference as well.  However, I had a 
 lot of trouble getting dh-golang to accommodate this package's 
 idiosyncratic arrangements and wound up bypassing it in this fashion 
 instead.  If you have a concrete suggestion as to how ncbi-entrez-direct 
 can make fuller use of dh-golang, I'm all ears. 
  
 In particular, this package doesn't have a Git repository (except 
 insofar as downstream packagers import it) or corresponding Go package 
 names, but rather puts executables' sources in a top-level cmd directory 
 and private library code in a top-level edirect directory, in a package 
 simply called edirect.  (Both directories have go.mod and go.sum files 
 that don't necessarily correspond to what Debian builds will pick up, 
 but that's presumably common enough not to be a problem.)
